Course Objectives		The objective of this course is to introduce the engineering students to the fundamental principles of fluid mechanics and momentum transfer. The emphasis is on the basics of fluid static and fluid motion, with applications generally selected from food processing. It is the intent of this course to show how the basic laws of fluid mechanics (fluid static; conservation of mass, energy and momentum) can be applied in an organized and systematic manner to the solution of practical (food) engineering problems. Ultimately, the student should acquire the knowledge and skill required to find solutions to practical fluid flow problems.
Course Description		Introduction to fluid flow Basic concepts Basic laws, dimensions and units, Conservation of dimensions, dimensional analysis Rheological properties of fluids Classification of materials and fluid properties Types of flow behavior Temperature dependency of viscosity Fluid statics, stress and pressure, basic equation of fluid statics Conservation principles: conservation of mass, conservation of energy Conservation of momentum Shell-momentum balance on fluid flow problems, derivation of velocity profiles in flow field with different geometries Pipe flow: flow regimes, Newtonian fluids flow, Non-Newtonain fluid flow Internal flow applications: friction losses in pipes, valves and fittings; calculation of pump requirements Pumps Flow measurement and control: pitot tube, venturi and nozzle, orifice meter, control valves Flow passed immersed objects drag coefficient, falling particles, flow in packed beds, fluidization and fluidized beds Application of momentum transfer principles in food processing: agitation, mixing, extrusion Differential analysis of fluid flow, Navier-Stokes equations
Course Outcomes		1. Analyze forces and pressures for static fluid problems. 2. Recognize and apply appropriate conservation equations to analyze steady flowing fluid problems. 3. Apply energy and momentum equations to determine velocities and forces. Perform drag force calculations. 4. Perform dimensional analysis and apply principles of similitude to a given fluid and flow problem. 5. Use energy equation to predict flow characteristics and calculate pressure drop at and across all types of flow circuits and its pipes and other components. 6. Apply energy balance principles in order to determine the required pumps. 7. Apply basic principles of fluid mechanics to packed-bed and fluidized bed problems. 8. Be able to apply principles of fluid mechanics to different flow problems.
